I would be a strong caregiver for a special needs individual because I combine hands-on caregiving experience with formal medical training. I have one year of direct work experience providing care, during which I developed patience, empathy, and the ability to adapt to each person's unique physical, emotional, and behavioral needs. As an EMT, I am trained to remain calm under pressure, recognize medical concerns early, and respond quickly and appropriately in emergencies. I understand the importance of safety, dignity, and clear communication when caring for vulnerable individuals. My background allows me to provide dependable daily support while also being prepared to handle medical situations with professionalism and compassion.
